my rich person sicko thing I would do is have a soda fountain installed in my house so I could go get a fountain diet coke at any time I’m sure I would die a decade earlier as a result but it would be worth it

Like Deborah Vance in Hacks!
Oh gods think of the upkeep and cleaning on such a horrific thing... the bacteria alone.. You know what let's encourage the rich to do this.
A Freestyle machine would make me happy forever
This is a beautiful dream.
talked about having one of these when I was a kid. Sandler copied me!
trump having a diet coke delivery button in the oval office was the most relatable thing i've ever heard about him
I recently stayed at a hotel that had an open soda fountain for all the guests to use and it was probably the best feature I have ever had at a hotel
Mine is I would hire a cook. I'd pay them a good living wage with health insurance, paid sick time, vacation, etc.! I just hate cooking SO MUCH
Why are they so expensive? www.webstaurantstore.com/servend-2705...
Would I die quickly from causes relating to owning a working slurpie machine? Yes. Would I go out like a king? Yes.
Turns out you don’t have to be rich. I did exactly this. Fresh fountain Diet Coke all the time. Now I have stage four colon cancer. It’s probably not related right? 😂
😂
honestly if you have some friends that do restaurant work you could probably get a fountain set up surprisingly cheaply it won't be a casual amount of money for a regular person (especially if you want a really fancy setup), but it can fit comfortably within the "legendary Christmas gift" tier
I would remodel every room in my house every few years.
It’s crazy the addiction to one of the most awful tasting liquids on the planet. Y’all are fucked up.
Slushie machine and a restaurant quality flat top in my kitchen... The I wouldn't tell anyone, but there'd be signs... 😂
I had a coworker once, years ago, who owned a slushie machine and brought it into the office every Cinco de Mayo
I worked in an office that had a slushie machine specifically for alcoholic slushies on Fridays. I am very spoiled by my remote work setup, but I do miss offices sometimes.
Pretty sure you don't need to he that rich to do this. What can a Soda Fountain Cost Michael 10 Dollars ?
notch is a fascist piece of shit and deserves to be mocked but also I think the candy wall is the only good idea a rich person has ever had
I would buy a website and try to make people like my posts
The red plastic cups were such a great detail and sign of a true addict
The sound of ice and bubbling soda inside that iconic red plastic—I could identify that sound from rooms away.
Her expert changing of the canisters while Ava stands there dumbfounded made me LOL.
Same but with my favorite sobe flavor. Orange Carrot. I would become consumed by its intricacies. Demanding that a successive number of mixologists work round the clock to perfect the recipe that could never match up to nostalgia. It would become my orange whale.
Benny Blanco turned his pool house into a movie theater with an entire WALL of candy. I think of that wall often.
This is probably the one thing me you and Trump have in common
Huh, I didn't know so many people preferred fountain drinks.
I was just thinking the other day about having a vending machine in my garage or something, that I could load with sodas or beers or whatever
Get one of those ones from 7/11 with Coke and Pepsi products. Mixing Coke with Mountain Dew is awesome.
Max HP spent well, tbh
Your friend who brews their own beer already has 95% of the equipment for this and can tell you where to buy it.
Why would one die earlier of drinking Diet Coke? Honest question. (As a diabetic I have good reason to fight the continuous, ignorant attempts to tell me, I should drink regular soda, because the Diet drinks "don't taste good" or/and "are unhealthy" - the latter without any prove....
... So, please, let me down and don't present any prove either. I want to enjoy my soda!)
don't think i haven't looked up the cost of a coke freestyle machine (you can't buy them but you can lease them at a few hundred bucks a month)
This but Costco’s Asian trail mix from an animal feed chute
I would buy a GMC motor home, have it restored, convert it to full electric with solar panels on the roof, make sure I have a bunch of spare parts and that wpuld be my home until I died.
Had one, growing up: 1929 model, with all the syrup pumps!! 🩷
those last 10 years aren't the best years
I’d never drink water again
I buy my own CO2 by the tank and cola syrup by the box, and mix them by hand in a two liter bottle This is far, far less convenient than a soda fountain but also kinda fun and shockingly affordable
Me but regular Pepsi don’t yell at me plz I was raised on Pepsi
New mattress every month. They can have a lifetime guarantee, but they are all 💩 after a few weeks. And no, I am not morbidly obese.
I like this dream🥤.
I wonder how long/many drinks it would take for you to break even financially?
When I worked at a greasy spoon in college, my favorite treat was making a chocolate soda at the fountain and floating an ungodly amount of soft serve ice cream on top. A soda fountain is a wondrous thing.
Not exactly the same, I know, but if you currently have or ever buy a countertop carbonator (IMO go with Drinkmate FWIW), I've heard this company's diet cola is a straight-up dupe of the good stuff: northwoodssoda.com/our-products...
My rich person sicko thing I'd definitely do is have a special filtered water ice machine plumbed in that makes those little pellets if easily crunchable ice. (yes, I know there are countertop ones. I want a GIANT one.)
With the service contract so someone comes out regularly to clean it
(my sicko rich person fantasies are all about being an unbelievably generous, thoughtful employer to everyone I encounter, with dignity for all, damn it)(there's going to be an amazing childcare & early education center on my estate for employees, at no cost)(even on days the parents work elsewhere)
(my sicko fantasy also involves giving money and support to politicians who make that kind of policy available to everyone. shouldn't be about the specific employer.)
I think maybe I'll just have the appropriate kind of mechanic on staff at a yearly living wage. (they can do call outs for other people if they choose, so long as they meet a contracted amount of maintenance for me too)(& maybe include some hours I pay for that they donate to people who need help)
I actually considered getting one when I remodeled my kitchen. The sales guy straight up told me that decent ones ran close to 5 grand, and even the decent ones break down all the time and needed frequent expensive repairs so it wasn’t worth it. I appreciated the honesty.
I'm going to do you a favor and not tell you how much one costs, otherwise you'll be like me and planning to buy one when the opportunity presents itself.
Omg yes. Hide it behind a secret panel for a for a double impact
I would open a shipyard, comission a full size replica of the SS Great Eastern, frame and hang a pair of gold-plated trousers above my mantle and buy a high powered laser to project obscene things about other billionaires on the moon like an insulting batsignal the whole planet can see.
you can do this now - bladders of syrup, co2 canisters, and a dispenser are cheap and widely available
I want a water tap at my desk. Chilled, please.
I want this, but only if I can specifically get McDonalds Sprite on one of the fountains.
i wish i could fill my yard with landmines & punji pits so i can tragically mourn my friends and family or the pizza guy just trying to casually come visit me
People will know I'm rich as fuck by the below 2 updates to my house: 1. On tap ice coffee dispenser in the kitchen 2. Toilets have sparkling water in them
See that's why I plan to offset the soda fountain with the private DDR cabinet.
i'd personally have refrigerated vending machines all over my home that don't take any money but distribute my favorite snacks - smoked salmon, beef jerky, every kind of gum you can imagine, all my friends favorite snacks, etc. it would be excessive. there would be a full time staff position for it.
You can buy the giant boxes of syrup that restaurants use, and then pour it into a soda stream
it would be such a fun prank as a kid the day you figure out how to change syrups and adjust water levels and gaslight dad.
Switch out the carbon dioxide for nitrous, that sort of thing
lol
